Piñata Game

No matter what is your age is always a good idea a piñata! But you can use some pinatos for adult (like this - photos)

If you still don’t know or forgot rules, that’s for you: A piñata full of treats―candy, small toys, fruit―is suspended from a tree. The host must draw a 15-foot circle around the piñata. Everyone should lines up. If you don't want to be hit on the head you shouldn't stay in a circle unless it’s not your turn.

After being blindfolded and spun around, each player gets three strikes at the piñata. When the piñata finally bursts, prizes throw on the ground, leading to jubilant pandemonium.
